Ideal Applicant
A Texas-based 501(c)(3) small or local nonprofit providing community, health, food-security, youth, or human services and seeking modest general operating support.
Good Fit
- • Organization is based in Texas and serves local communities (towns like Caldwell, Bryan, or nearby counties).
- • Request is for general operating support or modest program funding in the $1,000–$10,000 range.
- • The organization is a registered 501(c)(3).
- • Capacity to submit a concise mailed request with clear statement of purpose and contact details.
Geography
All observed grants across the available years were made to organizations in Texas, and the foundation's giving is fully concentrated in-state.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 9–12 distinct recipients in 2021–2022 but only two recipients in the latest year; historically it has supported a moderately broad set of local charities for a micro-foundation.
New Applicants
Direct submission instructions and a named mailing contact with a rolling deadline are provided in the filing, and recent years show new recipients, so unfamiliar local 501(c)(3) applicants plausibly can enter the portfolio.
